The German top-flight has always been in the shadow of its English and Spanish counterparts on an international basis. However, its much-anticipated resumption saw an incredible upward spike in viewing figures, with over six million people tuning into Sky Germany’s program on Saturday. Whilst global numbers will be revealed later this week, it is predicted that a record number of overseas spectators witnessed the Bundesliga in all its glory this weekend....
With an official announcement yesterday, Bungie Aerospace and Hairbrained Schemes have prepped the dogs of piracy on the iPad with Crimson: Steam Pirates set to release on September 1st for the low cost of free. Offering eight levels, dozens of unique ships (both in the air and sea), and the Caribbean’s worth of unique characters to collect, the upcoming app was worth the many months of muttered anticipatory speculation....

Beneath it, there’s a banner reading “Black Lives Matter” and it’s laid out on a black shield with yellow detailing.

A few days ago, Bungie confirmed that some players had not received their Destiny 2 Year in Review. As the name suggests, it highlights the player’s accomplishments throughout the year and shares stats related to their favorite Destiny 2 exotics. It also features some other interesting data like an activity breakdown, which shows the user’s time spent on various activities such as Raids or Strikes. Bungie has now shared an update and a possible workaround for this issue....
We got a hang of the controls, pwning n00bz and t-bagging to our hearts content - but it looks like we may have to adjust to the controls once again when Reach finally hits store shelves in a few months. Brian Jarrard, of Bungie fame, recently spoke to Xbox360Achievements about some ideas they had to deal with habitual quitters as well as tweaks made to the final retail version of Halo: Reach....
In an online interview with Time, Bob Baffert and his wife Jill said Burger King paid $200,000 to be seen with thoroughbred racing’s top trainer. MORE: Belmont replay | Triple Crown winners | Full results, payouts from Belmont Baffert’s American Pharoah won Saturday’s Belmont Stakes and the coveted Triple Crown in the process.

There was a time when I would have agreed with her. I had my first brush with the night shift almost 20 years ago, when I graduated from nursing school. I was married with two small sons. Those were the days of eight-hour shifts, 10 shifts per pay period, with new graduates at the bottom of the list for day work. My husband was not adept at household chores beyond taking out the trash....
Defour, who missed the World Cup during an eight-month layoff last year, has been restricted to six Premier League starts in 2018-19. And after the Belgium international underwent another operation he is not expected to be return to action before the end of the campaign. “He was going so well last year and had a knee situation,” Dyche told reporters of Defour, who helped the Clarets finish seventh and qualify for Europe last term....
That’s just a two-point swing from pre-convention levels, but an eight-point rise from late June. In a four-way race including Ralph Nader and Pat Buchanan, Green Party candidate Nader wins 5 percent and Reform candidate Buchanan one percent. In a two-way contest, Bush leads Gore by a 52-43 percent margin. Still, Bush emerges from the convention in a somewhat vulnerable position. His 11-point margin is within range of a standard post-convention bounce....
By the time he met the press, Bush knew what he wanted to say–had to say. Two American soldiers had been killed in a helicopter crash–the war’s first battle-related U.S. casualties. He had consulted with his military advisers, and presided by videoconference over yet another meeting of his National Security Council, but didn’t bother to vet his thoughts with spin doctors. Don’t worry, he told one of them, I know what I want to say....
THAT’S BIG NEWS For if he means it, Bush is proposing a new model for the presidency, the commander-in-chief as CEO, with the veep as COO. It would be a tag team: the charming Mr. Outside and the substantive Mr. Inside. Cheney is the heaviest of heavyweights: White House chief of staff, rising Republican star in the House, true architect of Desert Storm and head of Halliburton, a global company with 65,000 employees....
The Texas governor’s office is constitutionally weak, but Bush has, in his five years, had a strong but controversial run. Taxes: His ‘97 plan to slash property taxes while hiking other rates was his biggest gambit–and it failed. His almost $2 billion tax cut this year will help. But conservatives will needle him for not going farther. Gun control: He’s for allowing concealed weapons and backed a law limiting Texas cities’ ability to sue gunmakers....
““If I were judging these from 1 to 10, they would go: Belgian, 2; hydroponic, 4, and Calgene, 7,’’ said Waxman. ““They don’t glow with the flavor and aroma of summertime, but I’d be ecstatic to get these year-round. What they don’t have at all, to use language from another field, is nose. I don’t even try to smell tomatoes anymore.’’ Rosenzweig agreed. ““It’s so rare you can get an honest tomato,’’ she said....
It is unclear at the moment what ails the 35-year-old head coach who is coming into his second season at the helm. “Brandon Miller has requested a leave of absence for medical reasons, which the University has granted,” Butler athletic director Barry Collier said in a release. “We are not in a position to further elaborate and we ask that everyone respect Brandon’s privacy.” Assistant coach Chris Holtmann will step in as interim head coach....
Facing a testing target of 177 to win, the Royals were led by the inspired Buttler, who clubbed an eye-catching 95 not out to secure a four-wicket triumph with one ball to spare. The result in Jaipur keeps the Royals, dressed in pink to raise awareness of breast cancer, in with a chance of reaching the IPL play-offs. The Super Kings remain well placed to extend their season. BRILLIANT BUTTLER THE DIFFERENCE...
Nagorski, a longtime foreign correspondent for NEWSWEEK, started the novel while he was reporting in Germany, and haunted Hitler’s old neighborhoods and apartments looking for inspiration. “It’s hard not to sense the presence of Nazi ghosts in Berlin and elsewhere in Germany,” he says. “Friends who saw the stacks of books and papers about Hitler would joke that they were a bit worried about me.” The idea for the book came to him during a historical tour of Munich, where Hitler gathered his first recruits and rose to power....
The latest tidbit comes from Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo! Sports, and it provides details on the last straw for the Cavs. "Before Bynum was thrown out of his final practice and suspended," Wojnarowski wrote, "he was shooting the ball every time he touched it in a practice scrimmage, sources said — from whatever remote part of the court he had caught the ball." The capper came, according to reports, after Bynum stopped trying on the court and was disruptive at practice....
